Geraldine Ferraro – Sour old Bitch

Posted on

This is too funny!

The Story: Geraldine Ferraro resents being lumped in with the Rev. Wright in Obama speech (via The Daily Breeze)

Former vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro said today that she objected to the comparison Sen. Barack Obama drew between her and his former pastor in his speech on race relations Tuesday.

In the speech, Obama sought to place the inflammatory remarks of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright in a broader context, in part by placing them on a continuum with Ferraro’s recent remark to the Daily Breeze that Obama is "lucky" to be black.

"To equate what I said with what this racist bigot has said from the pulpit is unbelievable," Ferraro said today. "He gave a very good speech on race relations, but he did not address the fact that this man is up there spewing hatred."

Um, Sour Grapes there Miss. Ferraro?

Seriously, Racism is Racism, and Ferraro is just as guilty as Wright, plain and simple.

Now, seriously, I wish this woman would just drop dead go away and stay away for good.

How Stupid.

"I think what America feels about a woman becoming president takes a very secondary place to Obama’s campaign – to a kind of campaign that it would be hard for anyone to run against," she said. "For one thing, you have the press, which has been uniquely hard on her. It’s been a very sexist media. Some just don’t like her. The others have gotten caught up in the Obama campaign.

"If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position," she continued. "And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept." Ferraro does not buy the notion of Obama as the great reconciler.

"I was reading an article that said young Republicans are out there campaigning for Obama because they believe he’s going to be able to put an end to partisanship," Ferraro said, clearly annoyed. "Dear God! Anyone that has worked in the Congress knows that for over 200 years this country has had partisanship – that’s the way our country is."

Oy.

Sour Grapes, Anyone?

Right Wing Bloggers for Jesus! WOO HOO!

Yeah, I know it’s a gay title, but I thought it was funny. Tongue

The Story:  Blogging While Female (Via Right Wing News (Conservative News and Views))

 Every so often in the blogosphere, on the Left and the Right, hostile debates over gender seem to rise up to the surface like a leviathan from the depths. Some male bloggers tend to think women get more links because they’re women, some female bloggers think there’s some sort of a "good ol’ boys" club that keeps them from getting big, and more than a few people seem to get huffy about the whole debate.

However, the fact is that the issue is much more complex than it appears on the surface. The blogging experience ISN’T THE SAME for men and women. There are different advantages, disadvantages, and challenges that both men and women have to face.

I read two of the female Bloggers, Michelle Malkin and Rachel Lucas. Rachel Lucas is very, very, very, funny. I was shocked that they didn’t even mention Mary Katherine Ham, of whom I think is quite the looker. Ericka Andersen and Amanda Carpenter aren’t nothing to sneeze at either. Of course, I’m a 35 year old wrinkled up old fool and those ladies are like kids to me, so, all that’s just a faint dream for this old fart. Sad Ah well, such as life. Big Grin

Screamin’ and Swoonin’

Here’s a brilliant opinion piece asking a very good question…..:

We Scream, We Swoon. How Dumb Can We Get? (via washingtonpost.com)

Here’s Agence France-Presse reporting on a rally for Sen. Barack Obama at the University of Maryland on Feb. 11: "He did not flinch when women screamed as he was in mid-sentence, and even broke off once to answer a female’s cry of ‘I love you, Obama!’ with a reassuring ‘I love you back.’ " Women screamed? What was this, the Beatles tour of 1964? And when they weren’t screaming, the fair-sex Obama fans who dominated the rally of 16,000 were saying things like: "Every time I hear him speak, I become more hopeful." Huh? – Read the Rest

Some hate it, some call it sexist. I think it’s funny and says much of what I’ve been saying about the whole Obama craziness.

If the Bloggers are not liking it. It must be good. Winking
